The Outliers - Evolution to the World's Strongest

In a world where, unbeknownst to most of Earth's population, people with special powers exist, known as Meta-Humans. Such people belong to one of two opposing organizations. The first, known as Harmony, aims to coexist with regular society and protect them from superhuman or supernatural threats while remaining in the shadows. The second, known as Eden, aims to overthrow regular human society and establish a world where the super-powered reign supreme. These two opposing sides have been fighting for centuries, with countless conflicts scattered throughout history. The power balance between the two had remained even for a long time, and in order to tip the scales in their favor, Harmony began a certain project...the creation of nine orbs made using pure, natural power, known as Meta-Orbs. These orbs can grant a person unimaginable power, but right as the creation of these objects is completed, a conflict results in all nine Meta-Orbs being scattered throughout the world...and anyone who comes across them will gain immense power, even normal humans, therefore giving rise to the world's first unnatural Meta-Humans. And so, this ensues a vicious scramble between Eden and Harmony, as both sides look to find the people that come across the Meta-Orbs and take them into custody. These artificially-induced unnatural Meta-Humans are labeled as 'Outliers', and in the span of a few days, all of them have their lives irreversibly changed. Whether this change is for the better or worse, remains to be seen...

Chapter 65 - New Year's

Point-of-View: Inoka Fonseka

———————————————————————————

Today's the 1st of January, 2026, a little bit past midnight...in other words, it was new year's day. Normally, we'd all be asleep at this time, but because of the occasion, we'd stayed up to celebrate.

Specifically, it was me, Zoraiz, Alexis, Kiyana and Aurora, we were in my room with a bunch of snacks and stuff, playing cards with music blasting out in the background. Normally, I'd complain about holding this in my room, but since there's more girls than guys, I'll let it slide.

It's been over seven months since we ended up here, and...well, nothing particularly remarkable had happened since Aurora was brought here. We'd all continued working on mastering our Skills, and we'd also been given regular hand to hand combat training.
